This may be a 'No duh!' moment to some of you, but I just found something amazing in BBEdit.

If you're in terminal or TextEdit, you can drag the folder or volume icon off of a Finder window to drop the path of that folder into the terminal window. for example:

/Developer/Headers

If you're using BBEdit, it produces a neatly indented file tree listing of every file and folder in the folder you drag over:

Headers:
        FlatCarbon:
                ADSP.h
                AEDataModel.h
                AEDataModel.r
                AEHelpers.h
                AEInteraction.h
                AEMach.h
                AEObjects.h
                AEObjects.r
                AEPackObject.

...and so on.

I expect this would work in TextWrangler, their free application, too...I didn't test it because I no longer have it installed.

This is something that I only need once in a while, but it's a pita to produce normally.
